Marc: would love to know some specifics about the straw-clay dimensions of
this
structure relative to climate (wall thickness, type of clay used,
exterior/interior finish over the straw-clay). Presumably straw clay has
worked very well in northern climates in Europe, so it may be a case of under
design, poor installation -- who knows. But it would be good to understand
the
situation so we are better informed on potential limitations of straw-clay
relative to climate, since we get lots of inquiries on this technique due to
published reports of our work with it. Gail
